I appreciate your concurrence, Izak, and your response.
BUT
However legitimate you see Hezbollah as being, and however you feel blame should be assigned in their recent conflict with Israel, I have an angle, and I would like to see you, who seems to be a political supporter of the Palestinians, condemn Samir Kuntar and his actions. Again:
"He shot the father, Danny Haran, to death in front of his daughter,
Einat, then killed her by smashing her skull against a rock with a
rifle-butt."
No excuses, no "but the Israelis are worse," nothing. This is not part of a struggle for freedom. This is cold-blooded murder. I would expect a reasonable supporter of the Israeli point of view to condemn the actions of Baruch Goldstein as murder, and nothing else, and I hear way too many excuses and justifications on behalf of suicide bombers, etc. from Palestinian sympathizers. Murder is murder on both sides. Remember: smashed a four-year olds head with a rifle butt against a rock.
